Week 2’s post, courtesy of P.M and A.S
This week got off to quite a cold start as the heater was broken…again! We have been learning algebra and how to figure out the unknown variable (E.g. 3x-4=11). The value of the x is 5. The way we’ve been taught to work this equation out is productive and simple.
Other than maths, throughout the week we’ve also learnt about the Narrabeen Man. The class has been talking and collecting information to solve the mystery of why he might have been killed those 4000 years ago.
This week we also started some new guided reading. Each morning for 30 minutes groups will either be doing, group reading, read to self, reading with Miss Roberts or Writer’s workshop which is a creative writing task from the ‘Once upon a slime’ book by Andy Griffiths.
On Thursday was the disco. Kids seemed to enjoy it with lots of dancing and thinking. It seemed to be a good fundraiser. The rest of the week was pretty cruisey.
